Hey everybody. I'm here because I always seem to have some story being worked on in my head and I'd like to actually get one out in a finished form.

Sometimes I know how it well end. Sometimes I don't. But whenever I've started to actually write one down I can't seem to get it finished, even though my wife tells me that she likes the way it's going. So I guess that means I'm not totally hopeless at this.

Anyway, whenever I've seen someone ask for writing help online I always see this place or somewhere more genre specific suggested so I thought I'd check it out. Just from a quick look around I think I've made a good decision.

Take some time and read the Newbie Guide and the Stickies found
at the top of Forum pages. They are your best guide to learning about
Absolute Write.

Don’t forget to read the FAQ regarding posting pictures at AW.


Members who want to start a thread in Share Your Work to have work critiqued need
50 posts. Don’t make a mad dash to reach your 50 posts. Take some time to greet fellow newbies,
critique other members’ works, or join a discussion.

Welcome to AW!

Please read about AW basics here in the Newbie Guide! Many questions about using this software can be found in the FAQ's menu in the handy blue bar at the 'top' of this page. Also handy for first-time users is the common acronym list. This helps you identify those mystifying abbreviations.

*Critiques* So many new members ask about having work critiqued! They should first read the 50 Post rule. But when it comes to actually posting writing in the Share Your Work (SYW) area, this thread addresses many first time questions, while this one covers
most common problems. found in SYW posts. *Worth reading no matter how long you have been here!*

AW is a community built on the foundations of respecting your fellow writer and helping each other, it's the basic building blocks of how AW works.

Welcome to our community!

Welcome

And work to the end of a project and then start another. Unless you grow bored, you can't stop that. ;)

If you're looking for motivation and help through a community of fellow writers, you've made an excellent choice. Welcome! I hope you manage to get one of those stories out in full form!
